Starting from now, the build farm at provides lzip-compressed substitutes in addition to gzip-compressed substitutes. If your machine is running a recent Guix daemon (from the beginning of June), substitutes you obtain will more and more frequently be lzipped. Concretely, you=E2=80=99ll see messages like: downloading from https://ci.guix.gnu.org/nar/lzip/=E2=80=A6 where the =E2=80=9C/lzip=E2=80=9D part indicates that this is an lzip-compr= essed substitutes. If you=E2=80=99re running an older Guix daemon, lacking lzip support, there shouldn=E2=80=99t be any difference: you=E2=80=99ll download gzipped substi= tutes as before. However, we encourage you to upgrade your daemon. Lzip=C2=B9 compresses significantly better than gzip, so you=E2=80=99ll hav= e less data to download when installing and upgrading software. For example, the Libreoffice substitute goes from 123=C2=A0MiB to 89=C2=A0MiB (-28%). We may turn off gzip support on our build farm in a few months; we=E2=80=99= ll monitor gzip usage and give prior notice. Please report any issues you encounter.
